"Jesus Christ Super Star"
by arrangement with The Really Useful Group & Origin Theatrical
Since its Broadway debut over 30 years ago, audiences the world over have loved this compelling rock opera depicting the last seven days in the life of Jesus Christ from the perspective of the traitorous apostle Judas.
Set against a backdrop of civic unrest, at the heart of this story is a gentle messiah whose message of peace and tolerance is lost amidst voices clamouring for a warrior king to lead his people out from under the iron fist of the Romans.
As observers on all sides grow increasingly wary of a possible insurrection, the seeds of doubt and betrayal are sown. Webber and Rice’s stunning musical score offers an unflinching, moving, and provocative examination of the role of human nature in the ensuing turn of events.
Come and see this timeless classic with a talented cast of 40 and a full band on stage! We recommend that Marloo Theatre members book early to avoid disappointment.
Starring:
Daniel Mitton, Andrew Dobosz, Julie Fedele, Eddie Stowers, Ted Simpson, David Wallace, Paul Treasure.
